Welbeck has the pace and versatility to thrive at Spurs. Mauricio Pochettino is an admirer of the player's tactical discipline and plans to primarily use him in a central role, according to Dave Kidd of the Daily Mirror.

Redknapp Wants Sandro Reunion

Former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp is keen on bringing Brazil and Spurs midfielder Sandro to QPR, according to Kieran Gill of the Daily Mail. Meanwhile, Sky Sports have backed up initial reports that the 25-year-old was among Redknapp's key targets and would be available for around £16 million.

Sandro was one of the best midfielders in the Premier League for some time but injuries appear to have taken their toll and he has been unable to break back into the first team this season.

With Spurs apparently eyeing Montpellier defensive midfielder Benjamin Stambouli, per Simon Jones at the Daily Mail, it appears as though Sandro's time at the club may be over.

UPDATE: The BBC have confirmed that Sandro is undergoing a medical at Loftus Road ahead of the proposed transfer.
